AAC NYS Member Annie Agle

Annie Agle is a new NY Section member originally from Park City. Hence a pretty darn good skiier. However she has some valuable advice for anyone interested in ski mountaineering. And a cooling thought or two in this torrid weather.

New AAC Live Your Dream Grants Now Available

American Alpine Club "Live Your Dream" Grants Now AvailableThe purpose of the "Live Your Dream" Climbing Grant is to fund individuals or small teams in pursuit of their personal climbing dreams. The emphasis of the grant is on projects that have significant positive impact on grantees' progressions as climbers, as opposed to cutting-edge or exploratory objectives. The "Live Your Dream" Climbing Grants are developed and administered locally with community support. For the Northeast Region, the "Live Your Dream" Climbing Grant seeks to support climbers from a range of ages and experience levels, as well as a range of climbing disciplines (sport climbing, bouldering, traditional rock climbing, ice climbing, mountaineering, etc.). Climbers from Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland are eligible for the Northeast Region grant.
